How to enable history back button when using location.href = "site"?

I am new to js and html. I have a js code to redirect to a webpage in the same site, from https://example.com/html1.html to https://example.com/html2.html. I also want it so the back button can be enabled, but from what I have found from searching nothing provides an answer for what I am looking for.

Here is code:

location.href = "https://example.com/html2.html";  

For some reason the back button to go to the previous page (https://example.com/html1.html) does not work.
